Every now and then I will come up against a very good team in OZFL/scrims, with far more experience and skill than my own team. Realistically we are not able to compete at the same level as these teams, but we give it our best and just see how well we play against these top teams.

My question is: What can we do to learn against teams like these where no matter what you do we will lose players/position, leading to a lack of positive reinforcement?

I've always personally believed that matches like these are a waste of both team's time, but I'm sure you guys probably disagree.

Ask the other team after a stomping what they think you were doing wrong. It probably really obvious to them but less so for your team.

Sometimes the answer is just dm and there's not alot to be gained, but other times it might be something fundamental and critical to fix.

The more you lose the more momentum will shift as they get more aggressive each rollout, you cant afford to recoil in fear or it will just get worse. Just stick to basics and try not to rage too hard at each other if it goes bad regardless.
